The National Energy Management Institute Inc. (NEMI) along with the Biden administration’s Better Air in Buildings website have rolled out a resource to help building owners and managers, school districts, and other officials find HVAC contractors.
The website identifies professional that can perform ventilation verification and indoor air quality assessments, repairs, and upgrades. The launch of this resource comes after a spike in demand for contractors from school officials across the country looking for certified technicians to perform ventilation verification and indoor air quality assessments in the wake of the COVID pandemic.
Potential customers can visit the Better Air in Buildings website, learn about ventilation verification, and ask for information on contractors providing service in their region. The request is passed to regional indoor air quality representatives who provide the customer with a list of previously vetted contractors.
